Forbes StaffPrince William is worried about the missing jewels of his late mother, Princess Diana, which were passed on to Meghan Markle.
Prince William is worried as Meghan Markle’s ring, passed on to her from his late mother, Princess Diana, goes missing. He is reportedly inquiring about “Where are Princess Diana’s missing diamonds?” They once belonged to her late mother and were passed on to Megan Markle. In 2017, Meghan received their engagement ring from Prince Harry, which had two diamonds from the jewelry collection of his late mother, along with a stone from Botswana, a place significant to the couple. The gemstones were mounted on a simple gold band.
Meghan Markle’s engagement ring has been noticeably absent from her appearances.
After the engagement, Markle had the ring slightly modified, opting for a thinner band, reportedly. She was first seen wearing the altered ring at the Trooping the Color event in 2019, where she was seen wearing another ring. However, Meghan’s engagement ring has been absent from her appearances since this year. In May, she attended the gala without it. Later, it was explained that the ring was fixed, but the Duchess continued to appear at public events, including the Invictus Games in September, without wearing it.
Prince William questions on missing diamonds.
As per a source speaking to New Idea magazine, William is “worried” about the location of the diamonds from his late mother, Princess Diana’s collection. This missing piece of jewelry has added another layer of tension between Prince William and Prince Harry. The insider disclosed that William is alarmed by the situation and is reportedly seeking information through mutual friends to understand what’s happening. The source said, “And it’s safe to say it has set off alarm bells at the Palace. [Prince William’s] putting the word out through mutual friends that he wants to know what’s going on.” William is “always protective” of his mother’s memory and is particularly sensitive about his mother’s jewels, as those are very “important” to him. The source added, “Not knowing where they are is disturbing for William.”
In conclusion, the source said that for William, the jewelry holds great sentimental value, representing his mother’s presence in his life, and the memories of Diana wearing each piece “will never go away.”
